If it's like the 565, that's the mic amp gain. What is the pot that has a cutout on the bottom of the Orion II. I have looked at the manual but if its purpose is there I missed it. Thanks Gary K4MT _
The jumper cables are RG174 fitted with TMP connectors. Gary Follett-W0DVN (dukeshifi) posted on this forum within the past two weeks, that he has an ample supply of those jumpers available. 73, Alle
Tom, What are you using for a power supply? The Ten Tec 255 (companion supply for OMNI-X's) and 280 supplies provide overvoltage protection. The 251 and 252 supplies do not provide ovp. TenTec did of
Is the Vibroplex actually a "Bug" (2 binding posts, and adjustable armature weight), or a "Paddle" (3 binding posts/terminals, and no armature weight)? If it's a paddle, use a 1/8" stereo plug in the
The power connector on your OMNI is AMP Mate-n-Lok, and is available from Mouser, Digikey and others. 73, Allen--W7GIF -- Original Message -- From: tfr001@myfairpoint.net<mailto:tfr001@myfairpoint.ne
I've finally become motivated (and have the time) to perform the TT Wiki audio hiss mod to my two Corsair II's. Before I order the chip carriers complete with the OPA2134's from Cimarron, is there an
Dick, Yes, I've procrastinated installing the audio mod for too long, but finally have my backlog of "must do's" put to bed. I thought I'd check with the TT group before ordering from Cimarron, since
Thanks, Loyd. All interesting info. I checked with Jewell-Modutec about one year ago regarding availability of the Modutec 920051 meter, and was told that it was no longer available. BTW, Mouser show
Eddie, Glad you're able to get the 425 healed. It's my favorite TT amp. Was the meter cost from Jewell-Modutec comparable with the cost from Galco.com ($34)? I'll certainly be interested in how you d
Just recovered from a failure of my Orion 565 that looks to be a result of ionic solder migration. Orion was purchased two years ago from original owner's estate. Details of his operation/use are unk
Gary, You're right. I should not have attached a moniker to the mechanism causing the observed condition. But, the condition observed was unlike any "whiskers" condition I observed during the early 7
Doc, I'd be happy to help. If you 'll provide a phone #, I'll try. I apologise in advance if I have inadvertently sent this note twice. But maybe someone can help me with an ailing Tentec Omni 5. It
Floyd, The procedure for calibrating meter indicated Ip and Ig on the 422 multi-meter is: 1. Insure that the unpowered meter is mechanically zeroed. 2. Unplug cable #4 located on the HV Rectifier-fil
Does anyone remember Project West Ford (or Project Needles) back in 1961-1963? Something like 1/2 billion copper needles placed in medium earth orbit to enhance military communications capability. Oo
Floyd, I'm guessing that the 100ma Ip is in both the standby and operate modes? Same condition experienced here on my Centurion was corrected by replacing bias transistor Q1 on the FILAMENT-AC board.

Go back into the archives to Feb 21, 2016 for Centurion 422b troubleshooting help needed". My Centurion showed 140ma plate current when unkeyed in standby mode. Found the bias xistor Q1 on the FILAME
Thanks, Jim. I think something is amiss on the display board. All of the metered parameters (both meters) are reading about 1/2 their correct values. All the resistor values in the chain that are on
Hank: Thanks very much! You answered all my questions...even the one not asked, which was regarding the meter sensitivity. On vacation now, but when I return home next week I'll get after it. Thanks
